Lamont Johnson - Calypso After Nine

Sunday Jazz Continues; we're chilling out on a hot Sunday evening in Atlanta..

...just trying to get our minds right dropping this sound plus this insight; somebody will understand a brotha!!

Still sheltering in place, not trying to get caught out there like Herman Cain may he rest in peace; per Bernell Trammell I mentioned earlier some are playing for the wrong team , so what it do? 

...plus others still try to use race to bait their base like Laura Ingraham but I heard my constituents are in pain, so we're just trying to jam, we've got other work to do!!

Blue Mitchell - Delilah

Sunday Jazz Continues!! I've asked you before; besides gospel music what else are you supposed to listen to on Sunday?

The saga / struggle continues as I've said before; the situation is hostile, the devil is opposed to our endeavors on every day especially Sunday!!

The mothership is on the runway aka I-20 in Atlanta, who'll understand a brotha? is it like Trump mentioning McCarthyism aka the Mueller witch hunt?

A brotha gets scientific, usually in the breakbeat sense as beats bump, blasting on those that try to start with me!! we school another after we gather / hunt...

Oh yes!! we hunt and gather beats for these streets plus we drop this good word when we bring it back...

We're listening to this smooth track from Blue Mitchell called Delilah!! check out the players and the track...
